“We brainstormed and many names came up,” said Espargaro. “I don’t remember who had the idea of Sylvain, but I think he’s a good candidate. “I think it is better to keep a bit private for now, to make it happen first. Because for the moment we just talked with Sylvain, but we didn’t talk about anything else, so it is better to wait.”
Former world champion Fabio Quartararo also thinks having the riders united 'in one direction' would provide 'better communication'. "Or safer, because this year we got many accidents because we cannot overtake any more. So is for these kinds of things.” “But then if we start to do this then maybe we need to think about Moto2 and Moto3. We will see how we can first handle this like they do in F1 and maybe grow for the future for the smaller categories.”
